In January, Significant Productions will present Kim's Convenience - Written by Ins Choi - as the third production of Season 10 at The Studio Theatre Tierra del Sol.
Mr. Kim, a first-generation Korean immigrant, dispenses fatherly wisdom, history lessons, and potato chips from behind his convenience store counter in the up-and-coming Regent Park neighborhood of Toronto. With new luxury buildings popping up around the convenience store and a Walmart preparing to move in, Mr. Kim receives an unexpected offer for his property. He now has a difficult decision to make: keep the cash or keep Kim's. But Kim's Convenience is more than just his livelihood - it is his legacy.
Follow Mr. Kim as he tries desperately, and hilariously, to convince his daughter Janet, a budding photographer, to take over the store. Wholly original, hysterically funny, and deeply moving, Kim's Convenience tells the story of one Korean family struggling to face the future amidst the bitter memories of their past. But no matter what, humor and heart find their way onto every aisle in this award-winning play that is now a hit series on Netflix.
JUYEON SONG* (JANET) is a Korean-born actor and a 2023 graduate of New York University Tisch Drama's Experimental Theatre Wing.

Her short film credits include Pedigree (Palm Springs International Film Festival, HollyShorts), White Butterfly (New York Asian Film Festival, Hawaii International Film Festival), and Parked in America (South by Southwest). She is continually challenging the boundaries of her craft. Grateful to her parents.
